This art is often staged at various events such as welcoming official visits, weddings, circumcisions, and other thanksgiving. Every anniversary of the Republic of Indonesia's Independence day Cakenjring art is celebrated. Even the art of Cakenjring has repeatedly won the traditional music festival at the international level. However, until now this art has not been used as a cultural attraction in Banyumas Regency. Noting this, the purpose of this study was to determine the feasibility of the traditional art of Cakenjring Banyumas as a cultural attraction. This research uses ethnography method to study community behavior directly from its natural environment, hermeneutics method to interpret, give understanding, or translate meaning, and ethnomusicology method to find out social and cultural aspects of music and dance in the local and global context of Cakenjring art. Based on the results of data analysis, it is known that the art of Cakenjring is a collaboration of the arts of Calung, Kenthong and Genjring. This art has a clear identity in the form of groups and is growing rapidly in each village. Cakenjring has a type of music made from bamboo, drums, and flying. The number of artists from 10 to 80 people. The type of stage varies greatly. The costume uses Banyumas traditional clothes. Sources of funds from artists, communities and sponsors. Cakenjring has a good and entertaining moral message. Cakenjring art is increasing and there are improvements from time to time both musical instruments, artists, and poems, so that Cakenjring becomes a spectacle and show that is interested in the wider community regionally, nationally, and internationally. Therefore, the art of Cakenjring is very feasible as a cultural attraction in Banyumas Regency. Keywords: traditional art, cakenjring, cultural attractions, Banyumas I. PRELIMINARY Traditional art is a form of regional art and elements of regional culture that is part of the national culture. Regional languages are languages that are used as the language of intra-regional/inter-community communication in addition to Indonesian and foreign languages which are used as a means of supporting regional literature and culture or ethnic communities in the territory of the Republic of Indonesia. Regional culture is a part of living Indonesian culture. Regional traditional art is an element of regional culture which is part of Indonesian national culture. Banyumas language or often called Banyumasan or ngapak language is a group of Javanese that is used in the western region of Central Java, Indonesia. Some of the vocabulary and dialects are also used in Banten north and the Cirebon-Indramayu area. The dialect of the language is somewhat different compared to other Javanese dialects. This is because the Banyumasan language is still closely related to the Old Javanese language (Kawi) (https://id.m.wikipedia.org). Banyumas traditional art is a cultural wealth that grows and develops in the region of the former Karesidenan Banyumas, covering Cilacap Regency, Banyumas Regency, Purbalingga Regency, and Banjarnegara Regency. In accordance with its geographical location, the arts in the region have been influenced by the cultural centers of the Mataram Palace of Yogyakarta, Surakarta and Sunda. However, over the times the influences from outside Banyumas only enriched kidness, because Banyumas art has its own character, which is Sukirno Page 152 International Journal of Arts and Social Science www.ijassjournal.com ISSN: 2581-7922, Volume 4 Issue 4, July-August 2021 a cultural entity ngapak. The specificity of the Banyumas traditional arts even spread the influence on the surrounding culture, among others, to the area of the former residency of Kedu and Pekalongan (https://id.m.wikipedia.org). Banyumas cultural arts pretty much there are about 36 types, for example lengger, calung, ebeg, shadow puppets, puppet show, painting, mastermind jemblung, peang-penjol, kenthongan, campursari, chickpeas, bongkel, begalan, nodding, gumbeng, aksimuda , sintren, Javanese slawat, gandalia, rengkong, and dimples (Dinpemorkebpar Banyumas Regency, 2013). Of the many arts, some are staged in collaboration/ integrated called cakenjring art (calung, kenthong, and genjring) (http://azitha.blogspot.com/2008/06/06/ cakenjring.html). In the beginning, cakenjring art has not been managed professionally. Her personality is still very simple, just a seasonal tradition. Now the cakenjring art has developed rapidly. Cakenjring is always staged in the celebration/commemoration of the anniversary of Banyumas, the anniversary of the Independence of the Republic of Indonesia, even following the traditional arts festival at the International level of Azitha. 2008. http://azitha.blogspot.com/2008/06/cakenjring.html. However, until now there has not been a place/center for coaching, preservation, staging, development, and research centers cakenjring art as well as a place to visit cultural tourism in Banyumas Regency. If the cakenjring art has a professionally managed formation place it can be used as a place for entertainment and cultural tourism visits in Banyumas Regency. The presence of cultural attractions will bring a positive influence on the interest and presence of domestic and foreign tourists to come to Banyumas. The number of tourist visits will increase the welfare of the people of Banyumas Regency and its surroundings because these tourists will visit several tourist objects in the Banyumas Regency and surrounding areas. They spend their money on typical Banyumas products such as various snacks, clothing, and other souvenirs, and enjoy the beautiful night of the city of Purwokerto. Noting this, the researcher was very interested to study in depth the feasibility of traditional cakenjring as a cultural tourism object in Banyumas Regency. In line with the background above, the purpose of this study is to determine the feasibility of cakenjring traditional arts as cultural tourism objects in Banyumas Regency. Specifically the purpose of this study was to find out more data about calung art, kenthong art, and genjring art in Banyumas Regency. In addition, the development of cakenjring arts performance in Banyumas Regency was also examined. The results of this study have several contributions, namely as a meaningful contribution to thinking to develop knowledge, especially about traditional cakenjring in Banyumas Regency. In addition, the results of this study can be motivated to explore, live up to values, and finally like cakenjring as creative work, preserve local wisdom as a development of sustainable society, and the development of regional culture as a supporter of national culture and an increase in the original income of the regency Banyumas. The meaning of calung according to the Javanese-Indonesian Bausastra (1957: 680) is the name of angklung compatriots. The meaning of calung in the Sundanese General Dictionary is „tatabeuhan tina awi guluntungan, aya anu siga gambang aya anu ditiir sarta ditakolannana bari dijingjing‟ (tetbor made of bamboo, some are like xylophone, some are pinned and beaten while carrying). Understanding calung in the Big Indonesian Dictionary Second Edition (1996: 168) calung which is a musical instrument made of round bamboo that resembles the xylophone is arranged transversely, from top to bottom. Another understanding of Calung is a prototype musical instrument made of bamboo. Calung Banyumasan is a traditional type of percussion-like musical instrument made of bamboo which is located and developing in its native area, namely Banyumas. The meaning of the word calung itself comes from two words that are merged into one, namely "carang pring wulung" (shoots of bamboo wulung) and there are also interpreted "in chop-melung-melung" (at sounding loud). This instrument is known and developed in Banyumas and Sunda. Unlike the angklung that is played by shaking, the way to beat the calung is to hit the blades or sections (bamboo tubes) arranged according to the pentatonic barrel (scales) (da-mi-na-ti-la for Sundanese people, and ji-ro-lu-ma-nem for Banyumas people). Most types of bamboo used for making calung are wulung bamboo (black bamboo), but some are made from awi temen (bamboo bamboo, green) (https://rumahulin.com/calung). Sukirno Page 153 International Journal of Arts and Social Science www.ijassjournal.com ISSN: 2581-7922, Volume 4 Issue 4, July-August 2021 The Calung gamelan in the Banyumas area has a relatively similar tuning system to the gamelan tuning system in the surrounding areas such as Yogyakarta, Surakarta, and Sunda, the slendro pentatonic system which is commonly functioned as a performing arts musical instrument such as lengger and ebeg. During the heyday of the performing arts in Banyumas around the 19970s, the life of the Calung gamelan was very popular. In addition to the position of gamelan calung plays an important role in the life of the performing arts of the Banyumas community. Calung gamelan has an important role as a supporter of a folk art performance such as lengger and ebeg. He also has a form of musical spirit that is very strong in his reflection as a power revealed by Banyumas artists because there is

The percussion family includes all of the instruments that are “struck” in some way. We have no official records of when humans first used percussion instruments, but from ancient times, drums have been used for tribal dances and for communications of all kinds. Today, there are more instruments in the percussion family than in any other. They can be grouped into two types: 1. Percussion instruments that make just one pitch. These include: Snare drum, bass drum, cymbals, tambourine, triangle, wood block, gong, maracas and castanets Triangle Castanets Tambourine Snare Drum Wood Block Gong Maracas Bass Drum Cymbals 3 2.

Revised: April 23, 2018. Accepted: June 10, 2018 Abstract This research aims at examining how Banyumas people’s characteristics are symbolically ex- pressed in Calung Banyumasan performance. This qualitative research employs a hermeneutic approach to examine any symbolic meanings in calung performance. The data are collected by literary study, document study, observation and interview, which are then analyzed using con- tent analysis and interactive analysis of Miles and Huberman. The research results show that some song lyrics identify Banyumas people’s images and characteristics such as equality and honesty (cablaka) just like the ngoko level language they use. The performance consists of opening, Lenggeran, Badhudan, and Baladewan acts in the process of illustrating the character of Banyumas people who love jokes and crowd. Some aspects arising in performance reflect Banyumas people as an egalitarian, straightforward, like-to-gather, and syncretic society.

  • Innovative Approaches to Melodic Elaboration in Contemporary Tabuh Kreasibaru
    INNOVATIVE APPROACHES TO MELODIC ELABORATION IN CONTEMPORARY TABUH KREASIBARU by PETER MICHAEL STEELE B.A., Pitzer College, 2003 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES (Music) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA August 2007 © Peter Michael Steele, 2007 ABSTRACT The following thesis has two goals. The first is to present a comparison of recent theories of Balinese music, specifically with regard to techniques of melodic elaboration. By comparing the work of Wayan Rai, Made Bandem, Wayne Vitale, and Michael Tenzer, I will investigate how various scholars choose to conceptualize melodic elaboration in modern genres of Balinese gamelan. The second goal is to illustrate the varying degrees to which contemporary composers in the form known as Tabuh Kreasi are expanding this musical vocabulary. In particular I will examine their innovative approaches to melodic elaboration. Analysis of several examples will illustrate how some composers utilize and distort standard compositional techniques in an effort to challenge listeners' expectations while still adhering to indigenous concepts of balance and flow. The discussion is preceded by a critical reevaluation of the function and application of the western musicological terms polyphony and heterophony. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS Abstract ii Table of Contents : iii List of Tables ....

No one tends offhand to associate gamelan with MIT. but there it is. Professor Evan Ziporyn has been directing the gong kebyar ensemble Gamelan Galak Tika at MIT since 1993, and I was an active member from 1994 until 1997. Unfortunately the pressure of my studies at Wesleyan has not allowed me to play with Galak Tika as much as I would like in the past few years. For the three years of my tenure with Galak Tika we were blessed with the artistry of the Balinese husband and wife team of I Nyoman Catra and Desak Made Suarti Laksmi. The magnificent teaching and performance prowess of Evan, Catra and Desak formed the basis of my introduction to gamelan music. In 1997 I came to Wesleyan University to study for the degree of Master of Arts in Music, of which this thesis is a part. Here at Wesleyan I have had the great honor of studying with I. M. Harjito and Sumarsam, two Javanese artists. I sincerely thank them for broadening my awareness of the multifaceted natures of Indonesian music and for sharing with me the great beauty of the central Javanese court gamelan.

  • Best Weighted Selection in Handling Error Heterogeneity Problem on Spatial Regression Model
    Best Weighted Selection in Handling Error Heterogeneity Problem on Spatial Regression Model Sri Sulistijowati Handajani1, Cornelia Ardiana Savita2, Hasih Pratiwi1, and Yuliana Susanti1 1Statistics of Study Program FMIPA, Universitas Sebelas Maret, Jl.Ir. Sutami 36 A Kentingan, Surakarta, Indonesia 2Mathematics of Study Program FMIPA, Universitas Sebelas Maret, Jl.Ir. Sutami 36 A Kentingan, Surakarta, Indonesia Keywords: Spatial Regression Model, Heterogeneity in Error, Ensemble Technique, R2, RMSE. Abstract: Spatial regression model is a regression model that is formed because of the relationship between independent variables with dependent variable with spasial effect. This is due to a strong relationship of observation in a location with other adjacent locations. One of assumptions in spatial regression model is homogeneous of error variance, but we often find the diversity of data in several different locations. This causes the assumption is not met. One such case is the poverty case data in Central Java Province. The objective of this research is to get the best model from this data with the heterogeneity in error. Ensemble technique is done by simulating noises (m) from normal distribution with mean nol and a standard deviation σ of the spasial model error taken and adding noise to the dependent variable. The technique is done by comparing the queen weighted and the cross-correlation normalization weighted in forming the model. Furthermore, with these two weights, the results will be compared using R2 and RMSE on the poverty case data in province of Central Java. Both of weights are calculated to determine the significant factors that give influence on poverty and to choose the best model.

Keywords: Proverbs, Local Wisdom 1 Introduction Culture has its own peculiarities and reflects different values of life. Therefore it is normal when talking about a particular community or ethnicity, the first question arises always has to do with their customs, lifestyle, and the way they communicate. This study aims to examine the culture and language domain, especially the local wisdom in the form of knowledge and practices commonly used by the local community to solve problems in a good and correct manner. Culture refers to a set of practices, codes, and values that labels a group. Cultural discussion cannot be separated from the way it is held and communication media cannot be separated from the language position as a medium of expression of human mind reflection.

Whereas in most societies musi- cal genres are in the first place classified by social criteria, it is undeniable that also the technicalities of the music play a role: audiences hear the differences between, for instance, jaipongan and degung kawih perfor- mances. This is because these musics are produced in different ways, using different instruments, tone material, musical structure, etc. Alfred Gell made an important contribution to the anthropological study of art by pointing out that the production of art is a technological process. He mentions that there are ‘beautiful’ things, like beautiful women, beautiful horses and a beautiful sunset. However, art objects are made ‘beautiful’ by human beings and this requires technology. He criti- cizes sociologists like Pierre Bourdieu, who do not really look at an art object as a concrete product of human ingenuity, but only elaborately look at the represented symbolic meanings (Gell 1999:162). In contrast, Gell proposes that anthropologists should look at art as a ‘component of technology.’ We call something an object of art if it is the outcome of a technological process, the kind of processes in which artists are skilled.
